  The DeafboyOne Project

  Jul 1973 - now

  The DeafboyOne Project is entirely produced online. My aim is to bring to the attention of the hearing world aspects of Deaf Culture they can use in their own culture. The vision is that "One day all Deaf and Hard of Hearing people will have the same access to and enjoyment of music as Hearing people enjoy today...in the future visual stories and pop videos will be indistinguishable, deaf sign language will be easily understood by everybody across the world wide web, music will truly become a language that breaks through all barriers..."Regards DeafboyOne Show less
